The chemoenzymatic synthesis of new side‐chain polyrotaxanes ( 6 ) bearing non‐covalently attached cyclodextrins is described. Starting from 11‐methacryloylaminoundecanoic acid, up to 8 units of 12‐hydroxylauric acid were condensed in the presence of a lipase from Candida antarctica . They were copolymerized with methyl methacrylate to comb‐like polymers ( 4 ) bearing free carboxylic groups at the end of the oligoester side chains. These free carboxylic groups were then condensed chemically with a nucleophilic barrier group, N ‐(4‐aminobutanoyl)‐4‐triphenylmethylaniline ( 5 ), in the presence of dimethylated β‐cyclodextrin, yielding new polyrotaxanes that contain statistically more than 1 ring component per side chain.
